The Charlotte Fine Art Gallery is getting ready to celebrate Earth Day with a month-long exhibit.

“Eco-Art” features four North Carolina artists: sculptors Dean Johns and Jamie Keller, mixed media painter Destry Sparks and ceramic mixed media artist Julius Pratt. The exhibit features all four artists’ works in a group show that highlights their talent and ability to “reclaim, reuse and recycle” materials in order to create one-of-a-kind works of fine art. The exhibit opens April 3 and closes April 28. A special reception for the exhibit is scheduled for April 14 from 6 to 9 p.m.

Charlotte Fine Art Gallery also has a couple workshops coming up, including Escape to Comics Island, a teen seminar on Picasso and Girls’ Night Out, held the third Friday of every month. Find more information on the workshops at the gallery’s website, www.­charlottefineart.com.

The Charlotte Fine Art Gallery is located at 7510 Pineville-Matthews Road.
